Science...

Nice weather since yesterday, also we were able to use the CTD again at agreed
locations (at 12 and 7 km from the boat), looking for brines (a lot!), and to
travel across the icepack with the icemeter. This instrument also allowed us
to check the ice thickness (around 70cm) all over the site that welcomed the
seismometers last week. Today, a complete snow layer analysis at usual
location, 1km from Vagabond, close to the great glacier front. In the same
time, France finished setting up our solar panels, which, when it is sunny,
are giving more energy than the wind generator, even when strong wind! Nice
trip with the dogs then, before hard work to get out from under the snow, dog
house, snow shoes, skis, sticks, frozen in ice for some time. Soon we will
have to think about our dinghy...
